Cops rails need work

cop had lots more rails last year. they should put them all up for the last couplle week. and another thing is they need one of those boxes to have a jump on it, to work on spins on.

everything is ride on or street style, exept for the two boxes (s box and flat up flat) that are too hard for lots of us to do tricks on.

i hope if someone here works there they can say thats what lots of kids think, and even if they dont ix it this year maybe they can next year

i agree, they should atleast change the last down box they have right at the bottom, make it a nice 2 or 3 foot gap on with a nice wide jump so we could throw 270s and 450s on, it would be so much better than having the street style set up that it has now

i dont work there anymore, but if you want anything done around there you have to either talk to Wade Cose or Mike Tanner...those are the two big heads that bust shit out in the park...you want more variety of rails, better gaps, funner shit? address them personally and something will happen, maybe not right away, but eventually

they're the guys that actually build the park and manage the crew that goes around fixing shit...you can call 1-403-247-5452 and ask for either of them n you'll either get them or a mailbox. talk to them, they're the connections of connections

yEAH, but the majority of people who go to COP and are good are shred sledders, until skiers get rad, than street style it is. fuck dude, its more fun that way. we grew up in the fucking ghetto alberta.

Sorry, I was tired big time.


Translation means: The majority of the people that go to COP are snowboarders, a and a great deal of the snowboarders that go are pretty good. The good snowboarders don't like to concern themselves with easy features to get onto, so if there is a super hard box or rail, why make it easy to get onto? Plus, the skiers that go are pretty good for the most part, but there still is more good snowboarders than skiers. COP makers cater to snowboarders for more willingly than they would ever cater to skiers, its understandable. But plus, street style setups are more fun I think. I mean, us Albertans are part of the ghetto (not really).

Werd, I like down boxs/rails but they have like 10. One gap on flat would be nice. I really dont mind the streetstyle shit they have, just need some more variety.

On another note... I heard that they were moving a bunch of snow around making something new at the bottom? Whats the word on that?

the jumps id say about 60ft long...followed by a quarterpipe/vertical box/step-up arrangement...not open to public, only for competition on sunday...jump looks super gay cuz the landings flatter than a 5 year old!

ok, so the jump will probably be 70-75 feet to the sweet spot when it is done. the jump itself will be the same size as you can see, but they are pushing part of the pipe into the landing to make it more like a roll over landing, like a high knoll which rolls over into the landing.
